State-sponsored “bad actors” increasingly weaponize social media platforms to launch cyberattacks and disinformation campaigns during elections. Social media companies, due to their rapid growth and scale, struggle to prevent the weaponization of their platforms.

Parallel Life, a theatrical augmentation of city life, a trip through the streets using your phone and your imagination. Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be someone else? To wake up in their skin, to see the world through their eyes? To have lived their childhood, to have experienced sorrows and joys as they have, to dream as they do? Try to imagine being another person and accident

In the recent years, cryptocurrencies have gained popularity and have experienced high price volatility. This essay pretends to examine how the multivariate GARCH models predict the volatility of these digital currencies and what implications exist if we consider the correlations among them to forecast their volatility. Using a bivariate Diagonal VECH and bivariate Diagonal BEKK this thesis checks

Like many things, social movements have been able to take a new form, and behave differently, thanks to the rise of the internet and social media networks. The purpose of this study is to analyze how long lasting this engagement is from its participants, and how short-run participation in social movements can be understood. This study has been heavily inspired by Zizi Papacharissi, therefore the t

Denna uppsats är skriven i syfte att undersöka vilka aspekter av service som kan standardiseras i avsikt att öka servicekvalitet. Detta anser vi vara intressant då det idag pågår en debatt om servicekvalitet och dess betydelse, då konkurrensen ökat på den internationella marknaden. Samtidigt finns det olika åsikter om vad som garanterar god servicekvalitet. Vissa teoretiker förespråkar en standard

Large language models (LLMs) like GPT-4 have the potential to dramatically change the landscape of influence operations. They can generate persuasive, tailored content at scale, making campaigns using falsified content, such as disinformation and fake accounts, easier to produce. Advances in self-hosted open-source models have meant that adversaries can evade content moderation and security checks

By tradition, L2 motivation research has a monolingual bias – the motivational systems of a learner’s different languages conceptualized as separate entities rather than as cognitively interconnected. At a time when multilingualism has become a new world order (Douglas Fir Group, ) and where there is evidence of powerful identity experiences connected to speaking several languages (Pavlenko, ) thi

Gaming-kulturen har växt otroligt fort de senaste åren och vissa gamers kan till och med leva på att gamea som sysselsättning, i någonting som kallas esport. Esport är ett område som det inte pratas så mycket om och därför är det intressant att undersöka. Syfte

This paper reflects on the increasing role played by algorithms in management today by situating this trend in the context of a long-standing debate about the distinction between leadership and management. Our guiding question concerns the role of humans in what might be called ‘algorithmic leadership’, understood as an advanced form of algorithmic management that is making redundant some of the e

Land Reform in Zimbabwe was instigated at the end of the 1970’s as an effort to ease tensions and more equitably distribute wealth and power between the disenfranchised black population and their white colonial rulers. In this thesis I examine Zimbabwean land reform from a new institutional perspective. More specifically, I examine which of the two institutional logics, logic of appropriateness an
